A Night with Her Cruel Mate

When Consuela saw Julia shaking her head, the light in her eyes extinguished. With a passive smile she cocked an eyebrow. "That's right. How could Director Zhang risk using you at such a crucial time?"

She took a deep breath and tried her best to sound positive. "It doesn't matter. We can always look for other opportunities. We'll succeed as long as we continue to aim high for our goals."

"Consuela, please listen to me," Julia pleaded, she was embarrassed that her agent had been so overworked by taking care of her.

Although Jean wrote the script for Director Guo's movie, she was willing to do anything as long as she could earn money and ease Consuela's worried mind.

"Julia, don't be disappointed. Even though Director Zhang will be shooting a great movie, we'll be able to get a better offer in the future. What do you say?" Consuela chattered endlessly, trying to comfort the both of them.

Julia sighed, "It's not Director Zhang's movie, but Director Guo's TV series."

Consuela stopped talking and froze. "Have you forgotten? We attended Director Guo's birthday party a couple weeks ago. Although Director Zhang is a great director, it's just a movie. On the other hand, Director Guo is creating a TV series with fifty episodes. Think about it, we'll be paid handsomely."

Julia beamed at Consuela. "After this series is finished, I might even be able to move out."

"Julia..." Consuela narrowed her eyes in suspicion, not expecting Director Guo to help Julia. When she found out that Jean had written the script, she didn't want Julia to shoot.

and sat next to Consuela. She gently grabbed her friend's hand. "I know that you're worried about me, but what doesn't kill us makes us stronger, huh? Jean always wants to make things hard for me, doesn't she? I'm not afraid of her at all. She gave me this opportunity, and I won't let it slip.
